Figured I could handle my own dryer. Opened it up, lots of lint! Cleaned everything, blower,wheel,filter duct thingy. Vac out entire dryer,replaced the 4" venting as it was loaded. Now dryer is as clean as the day it was bought. One time fuse ok Start dryer , ignitor warm up normal but no click sound from gas valve. Beat the side of the dryer where the flame sensor looks at the ignitor\flame. Dryer lite normal and worked for a month. Dryer failed again, picked up new flame sensor from supply house and installed. Dryer will not ignite. Ingnitor glows but no flame. Thanks to all who respond Bernie

If you replace one, replace them both. Part number: AP3094251 This is a great resourceful site, i appreciate your input. I ohmed out the coils and the main 2 terminal coil is open. Ill be purchasing the kit from this site. Thanks again Bernie If you ever need residential or commmerial hvac help, I'd be happy to return the favor.
